Mike Ness - If you Leave Before me Cheating at Solitaire [email protected]
Here's my best interpretation. I'm pretty sure it's accurate.
Capo: 1
D If you leave this world before me
I promise to you I shall keep E I won't fall in love with another one D Over your ashes I shall weep
If you leave before me
A promise I never will tell E About all the things we talked about D Our dark secrets I'll keep well
Chorus: EGD Aren't you glad, there ain't nobody listening? EGAmG Aren't you glad, that no one seems to care what we do? DAmDG Aren't you glad there ain't no one here to tell us what's right or wrong? EGD While we sit and we talk about nothing
What if there's no God in Heaven? What if there's no God at all? I promise these last years of loving you Will be the best years of them all This don't look like Heaven I'm surrounded by fiery walls For if I were to live here without you That'd be the greatest sin of them all Repeat Chorus
